Just like always, Jinhoo sneaked into Bella's room. It wasn't much of a sneaking-in since the guards always allow him to pass. The only person he is wary of is Mr. Kim. When Jinhoo entered, Bella was already on her bed with her eyes closed but she wasn't sleeping. Jinhoo saw true her lie immediately and then came close to her face."Wake up." He said but Bella did not. "If you keep pretending to sleep I might end up kissing you." The shock made Bella instantly open her eyes and Jinhoo smiled. "If only you didn't open your eyes, I might have kissed you." Bella closed her eyes yet again but Jinhoo only smiled and sat on the floor. Bella opened her eyes and started playing with Jinhoo's hair and running her fingers through it. Jinhoo brought out a textbook and started reading, Bella wasn't surprised since Jinhoo has done it on many occasions. The two enjoyed the silence and only the rustling of the book and the sound of their breathing could be heard. Sometimes, the best time you share w
"That's it." Mr. Lee said as Jinhoo gave him a calf hit which started as a knee kick. Jinhoo took Hyun-ho's advice and started learning how to feint his attacks. Though when he feints, the attack which he eventually delivers won't have power as much as a direct attack, it still has a great advantage. With his speeds and feints, it made it harder to defend against Jinhoo. He has been training with Mr. Lee for over two weeks now and the progress is noticeable."Let's stop for today." Mr. Lee said while panting. Even for an assassin like him, it took him a great deal of strength to fight against Jinhoo. "You have really changed your fighting pattern, no it is safe to say you evolved. Not only do you use your environment, but you have also become so adept in using feints.""I have you to thank." Jinhoo smiled.Mr. Lee didn't say another word as he left the boy with a smile. After Mr. Lee entered his room he replayed the fight he just had in his head and discovered the boy had many chances
Young-Soo was ready for Jinhoo, so he already have his men waiting for Jinhoo at the entrance. So as not to lose face to his rivals, Young-Soo didn't request help from the minor boss in his districts, so he just gathered his own men. Seeing the number of men at the entrance Jinhoo knew he is in for a treat, he was glad he came prepared. He looked at the crowbar in his hand and smiled. Jinhoo knew he had to preserve his strength as much as possible before meeting Young-Soo, and luckily for him, he was able to gather points from new tasks."I guess I would have to rely on the points when push comes to shove." Jinhoo muttered as he started walking closer to the men in wait for him."The boy wants to die."" I heard that whoever kills him would be promoted.""The person would be given the two districts that belong to the boy.""Isn't it too much gathering so much against a teenager?""Frankly, I would have thought the same if I was present when he fought Hank. Even know Hank hasn't fully
They all unsheathed their katana blade and dashed toward Jinhoo, their movement was swift and their synchronization was perfect. Jinhoo quickly moved a step back but the ninjas were faster, so they instantly went for the kill as one swung his blade at Jinhoo intending to instantly cut off his head. Jinhoo used his crowbar to defend but the katana cut through the crowbar like bread, and if not for Jinhoo moving back, his head would have been cut off.Jinhoo threw the remaining crowbar at them and somersaulted away in order to prevent them from circling him. The opponents he faces now are not like the ones he first met, these are quality over quantity. Jinhoo have no knowledge of sword fight but he knew the only way he would win against these opponents is by being extra careful and sharp. "Are you afraid?" Young-Soo asked as his lips curved up to a smile. "It is alright to be afraid, fear is one of man's oldest instincts, it keeps us alive. You should stop now, I would reward you great
Jinhoo and Young-Soo stood there looking at each other. Only their fist are raised but no one is making a move towards each other. Though Young-Soo has seen Jinhoo fight on numerous occasions, it feels like the teenage boy still has many surprises. On the other hand, Jinhoo is hesitating to attack Young-Soo because he has never seen him fight except for his little heartless act of beheading the girls. The longer they stand the more nervous the girls become, they don't know if Jinhoo's hesitation is a result of fear or acceptance of defeat. Though the sunlight doesn't reach the room, slowly the day chameleons into the night. Because of the tension building up in the girl's heart, one had no idea when she let go of the katana in her hands. The noise made by the katana was all it took for the two beasts to dash toward each other.Young-Soo's punch was heavy and fast, Jinhoo knew from the first swing. Though Jinhoo managed to dodge the full swing, the force was enough to break the wall be
Jinhoo froze as he heard Bella's words, he didn't need to ask what she meant for he already knew. He looked towards the hallway and his heart started beating faster fearing that Bella would choose to come down this way."I would wait for you here, it is already night so I hope I don't wait for long." Bella let out a nervous laugh and Jinhoo let out a sigh of relief. "You won't have to." Jinhoo hung up and put the phone back inside his pocket."We can help you fight him." Da-in said and the rest nodded in agreement but Jinhoo had other plans. Jinhoo knew fighting with them would offset their pattern and it will do more damage than good. "No, you three should stay and watch. I have only one request.""What is that?" So-ra asked."After this fight, you should run outside, there you will find the most beautiful girl, take her away from here and always keep her out of danger. I know this is selfish of me to ask but I always protect her and keep her out of harm's way." "Alright, we woul
Not only Jinhoo was surprised by what just happened, but Young-Soo was also equally surprised for he never knew he would meet his death in such a manner. He accepted his defeat but he knew Jinhoo wasn't like them that would kill their opponents just to make sure the opponent never had a chance in the future."Why did you do that?" Jinhoo turned to the girls in rage."It is the best way to end things, in that way, he would never come seeking revenge." So-ra answered but her reason wasn't just that."That is not enough reason for you to kill him. If he comes back for revenge I would be waiting." Though Young-Soo has committed abominable acts, Jinhoo felt it was not in their hands to punish him for those crimes. If their government wasn't so corrupt, they would have been the ones to punish criminals."If that isn't a reason enough for you, then how about my revenge, our revenge." So-ra said as tears rolled down her eyes and Young-Soo coughed drawing Jinhoo's attention back to him."She i
Jinhoo wished his feet could carry him faster, he want to see Bella as soon as possible. His vision was getting blurry and he knew it won't be long before he lose consciousness. The system has awarded him his points but he paid no attention to it, his mind was in a jumble and the only thing he can make out of it is seeing Bella. Though it looked like an eternity to Jinhoo, it was just three minutes walk. Jinhoo stepped outside and Bella was standing there with a scarf around her neck to keep her warm. She also had gloves on but seeing her pink nose, it shows she is feeling cold."Jinhoo." She called and rushed towards him the moment she saw him being led out by the two girls. "Bella." Jinhoo smiled and fell into her arms as exhaustion took over him and he passed out in the arms of the girl he love most."What?" Bella fell to the ground since she wasn't strong enough to bear Jinhoo's weight. "What's wrong?" Bella said alarmingly. She doesn't care about the sharp pain she felt from th
